Lin Yi ran.
Not the word he would have chosen for what Boundless Step produced, but the functional description was accurate.
Lin Yi was moving away from a fixed point toward no particular destination, each activation of the layered movement technique carrying him further from Cang Yutian's last position, the chain window extending the consecutive steps until the energy cost became relevant and the window expired, at which point he activated again before the gap between activations became a stillness the watcher could exploit.
The mid atmospheric layer of the Allheaven Expanse was familiar terrain at this point, the island formations and astral river paths catalogued through weeks of operation. He moved through it at the speed Boundless Step produced, the floating islands resolving from shapes into detail and then passing into the wake of the transition before either phase could become significant.
He did not look back.
